London Fans meet Sir Paul


Sir Paul McCartney received a rousing reception as he mingled with adoring fans at a New York record store where he launched his latest work.Hundreds of people showed up at the launch of DVD 'The Space Within', some of whom had queued for two nights to meet their musical hero.The 64-year-old former Beatle took a break from his bitter divorce from estranged wife Heather to sign copies of his classical composition Ecce Cor Meum (Behold My Heart).Many gripped his hands as he spoke to them and emerged in tears, overwhelmed with emotion.Afterwards they said they had avoided asking the star about the breakdown of his marriage.New Yorker Susan Roazzi said: "I told him that we believe in his goodness and wish he and his family peace. He said 'Thank you very much'. He seemed very warm and responsive."Sir Paul and his wife were catapulted into the headlines when divorce papers claiming he mistreated her were leaked to the media.Through his lawyers, the pop star said he would "vigorously" defend himself against the accusations.
